I'm looking for dry suit undergarments for my wife. We just ordered DUI TLS 350 dry suits, and because she's petite (5'2", 110 lbs) ordered a custom size for her. My LDS carries both DUI and Weezle undergarments, but I've heard conflicting advice on whether one style requires more weight than the other. Some have said she'll need more weight with the DUI, and others have told me she'll need to wear more weight with the Weezle (all other things being equal). The DUI would be the Actionwear 300 jumpsuit (rated for 45° - 60°) and the Weezle would be their Extreme line. Either one would probably need to have the arms and legs shortened to fit her correctly. The planned diving conditions are typical southern California - low 50s to high 60s.
Any recommendations between the two as to whether one will be warmer, or which one she'll need more or less weight? I stopped at another nearby dive shop today and they had a Diving Concepts thinsulate jumpsuit that also looked quite toasty, so there are other options around here. My LDS recommended against the DUI thinsulate jumpsuit, saying they found it too warm for So Cal waters.
